Kohl's Cares Scholar-ship Program is accepting nominations for the 2014 program, where it will award kids ages 6 to 18 years old who have made a positive impact on their community through volunteering, with prizes.

Nominations will be accepted now through March 14 at kohlskids.com, and 2,300 young community volunteers will be eligible for $400,000 in scholarships and prizes. Parents, teachers, neighbors and friends are encouraged to nominate outstanding youth.

Two nominees from each of the more than 1,100 Kohl's stores nationwide will win a $50 Kohl's gift card, and nearly 200 will win regional scholarships worth $1,000 toward higher education. Ten national winners will be awarded a total of $10,000 in scholarships for higher education, and Kohl's will donate $1,000 to a nonprofit organization on each national winner's behalf.Ê
